Cignomoro, Puglia Pepenero rosè 2023 Rose

Cignomoro Pepenero Rosé 2023 is a vibrant expression of Puglia, crafted from the region’s distinctive Negroamaro grape. Its pale pink colour, floral fragrance and refreshing mineral character reflect the influence of Puglia’s sun, sea and coastal winds. The wine also embodies Cignomoro’s commitment to the red soils and unique growing conditions between Manduria and Carosino.

Tasting Notes
A beautiful, delicate pale pink in the glass, this rosé offers an expressive nose of geraniums and roses, complemented by fresh aromas of strawberry and pomegranate. On the palate, it is finely structured and pleasantly smooth, with lively acidity and a subtle mineral finish that keeps the wine fresh and energetic. The 2023 vintage is best enjoyed young, while its floral and fruit-driven character is at its most vibrant. Serve it well chilled to highlight its freshness and aromatic intensity.

Production
The Negroamaro grapes are grown in Puglia’s characteristic red soils, in the area between Manduria and Carosino, where warm sunshine, sea air and prevailing winds shape the fruit. The grapes undergo a brief maceration of 12–24 hours to achieve the wine’s delicate colour and aromatic profile. The free-run juice is then fermented at controlled temperatures of 16–18°C, preserving its freshness, floral notes and vibrant fruit character.

Food & Serving
A versatile food wine, Cignomoro Pepenero Rosé pairs beautifully with seafood, grilled prawns, tuna, light pasta dishes, fresh salads and antipasti. Its refreshing acidity also makes it a natural match for pizza, mild cheeses and Mediterranean cuisine. Serve at approximately 8–10°C. Decanting is not necessary; simply chill and pour, allowing the wine a few minutes in the glass to open up.
